This two-hour Peterborough Liftlock Cruise offers a unique and unforgettable experience, taking visitors on a scenic journey through the historic Trent-Severn Waterway in Peterborough. The highlight of this cruise is the passage through the iconic Liftlock. After the cruise, we will have a delicious lunch and then visit the Whetung Ojibwa Craft & Art Gallery. The Craft Store is more than a shopping experience-it's a cultural journey that connects visitors to the heritage and creativity of the First Nations people. Visitors will learn about the history and significance of these creations. Enjoy a delicious meal at Jack's Restaurant. All meals include salad, dessert, tea or coffee. Choice of Fish & Chips or Hot Chicken Open Face Sandwich upon booking. Please call McConaghy Centre for your meal selection. Tickets are available on a first-come, first-serve basis until July 30. No refunds after July 30.
